About Gene

Born in Douglas, Georgia in 1955 and raised in Leesburg, Florida, I graduated in 1973 before proudly serving three years in the U.S. Army. In 1978, I moved to Opelika, Alabama, answering a call to ministry and soon met the love of my life, Sherrie Lynn Hall. We were married in 1979 and shared 41 wonderful years together before her passing in 2020 due to COVID-19. Together we raised two sons, Jason and Jonathan, and I'm now blessed with three grandchildren and one great-grandchild. My career has been built on hard work, faith, and service. After years in construction and remodeling, I founded Dixon Mobile Home Supply and Repairs in 2000, which I successfully operated until selling the business in 2014. Alongside my professional work, I have served as a pastor in North Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama, and currently pastor at First Holiness Church in Tallassee, Alabama. I am now engaged to my fiancee, Sheila M. Powers of Purcellville, Virginia--an incredible source of love, encouragement, and support as I embark on a new chapter in real estate. With decades of hands-on experience in building and construction, I bring a deep understanding of homes from the ground up. My goal is to use that knowledge to help others achieve the American Dream of homeownership--whether you're a first-time buyer, an experienced homeowner, or looking to sell and relocate. It would be my honor to serve you with honesty, dedication, and care.
